The deadline to receive applications for the "CEDENNA 2024 Images" Contest was extended until Wednesday, November 13, in which we seek to compile the best images related to nanoscience and nanotechnology, based on the work carried out by students and researchers. by CEDENNA.

Who can participate?

Undergraduate and postgraduate students, postdoctoral researchers and technological developers, assigned to the Center.

What products will we create with them?

Dr. Patricia Díaz, researcher at the Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (CEDENNA), participated in a discussion titled How does biotechnological transformation manifest itself in our lives?, held within the framework of the Explora National Congress on School Research and Innovation.

At CEDENNA, today we welcomed students from the Aeronautical Polytechnic School, who participated in an enriching day to learn about the work of our scientists and the latest advances in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology.

“It is a great honor to receive the WIPO National Award for Women Inventors. This recognition not only highlights the scientific research we carry out in Chile, but also underlines the importance of international protection through the PCT system to ensure that our innovations have a global impact. This award is not a personal recognition, but the result of the joint work of many people who are behind each development, because science and technology are collective achievements.

“Updated teaching of advances in science and technology is essential to form a critical citizenry capable of understanding and facing global challenges such as climate change, pollution and the loss of biodiversity. Only a scientifically informed citizen will be able to demand public policies based on evidence and actively participate in the search for innovative and sustainable solutions.”

Yesterday, The Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology had the honor of receiving the outstanding historian and 2024 National History Award, Dr. César Ross, in an enriching conversation held at our facilities. This activity allowed students to interact directly with Dr. Ross, who shared his experiences, knowledge, and perspectives, providing a valuable opportunity for learning and reflection.

In an unprecedented collaboration between the CEDENNA Foundation and the Medical College of Chile, the webinar "Nanotechnology for the medicine of the future: a first step towards clinical innovation" will be presented, an event that will serve as the opening for the course "Nanotechnology for Medical Professionals ". The objective of this course is to bring the benefits and applications of nanotechnology to Chilean doctors, preparing them to face the challenges of an increasingly advanced and personalized medicine..

The National Institute of Industrial Property (INAPI Chile) opened its doors to host the activity “Promoting links and associativity between ANID Centers”, an initiative organized by the National Research and Development Agency and aimed at managers, directors, executives and deputy directors of the network of Centers that have their financing and support.

The Molecular Magnetism and Molecular Materials group (LM4), which is part of CEDENNA's Nanostructure Chemistry research line, is receiving a visit these days from the French student Timéo Chamontin Le Fur, a student at the Institut Universitaire Technologique (IUT) of the French University of Rennes 1 in the city of Saint Brieuc.

• Memorable talk and conversation with this outstanding researcher and academic Usach.

The Auditorium of the Rector Eduardo Morales Santos Research Centers Building (REMS) of the University of Santiago de Chile was the scene of a talk by Dr. José Zagal, recently awarded the 2024 National Prize for Natural Sciences, within the framework of the CEDENNA Seminar Series.
